Like Wallace and Gromit but instead of cheese it’s biscuits.

My wife is lactose intolerant and we always have soya milk in the house. I don’t drink tea or coffee and only have milk for cereal, so I just have been having soya for about 15 years.
When my son was a bit older we thought we’d make some milk shakes for him and his friends. I had one too, and boom. Massive shits and wind. Never used to be a problem for.me but now it is.

They would need to define what a school uniform looks like. They vary massively from country to country.

And many have killed while bearing the flag.
- Comment on 'Criminal' flag-raising causing alarm and distress, court told 2 weeks ago:
The people doing this use the flag intentionally because it makes it almost impossible to complain about it. They’ve highjacked the flag and warped what it stands for.
There is also an element of 90’s football hooliganism. Before this recent right-wing stunt, when I see a st Georges flag raised my first thought is the person raising it is a football idiot.
So I don’t think it’s people hating their country or the flags specifically, it’s more about disliking the morons who use it and what they think it stands for.

That’s seems more plausible now. I did also have a thought that perhaps the US is testing the UK abilities. But then why would they have fortified the gates and such.
- Comment on Major incident declared near RAF Fairford as men held on suspicion of explosives offences 3 weeks ago:
If it were Russia they would be doing this by some foreign proxy team. Also explosives doesn’t seem Russia’s style. I am also learning towards Iran or some anti-zionist agency. Iran still makes more sense.

- Comment on France says EU’s ‘Made in Europe’ law should not include the UK 3 weeks ago:
It sounds like they specially chose Made In Europe instead of Made In EU so they can choose members outside the EU. Saying UK left the EU is irrelevant if that’s the case. It should be measured on other factors, same as they should for other non-EU European countries.
- Comment on NHS bodies in England impose two-year minimum wait for ADHD and autism assessments 3 weeks ago:
My son was recently diagnosed, meeting the criteria of autism. While I’m no expert along the way we did learn a few things. The school can refer. The GP can refer to NHS which itself is confusing because some doctors say they can’t and some say they can. We went down the “right to choose” option. This is only available in certain areas of England, basically the parents find a clinic which offers this service then go to the GP for them to approve and send the request over to the clinic. I assume this is funded by the NHS.
This took us 4 months from begging of the process to getting the result. But it depends which provider you use.
The school said their referral is faster than the NHS but still takes a long time, usually years. Reading the article I think the added delays are probably against the school and NHS option, but it’s not really clear to me.
I’d say anybody in need of an assessment, go with right to choose, if available. And speak to the schools SEND personnel. Do parenting courses or courses on ASD/ADHD (we did triple P). All of this will allow you to have a collection of teacher/parent/sendco assessments and evidence. Do this before going to the GP.
- Comment on Far-right activist Daniel Thomas slashes dinghy in Channel with blade while rescue worker onboard 3 weeks ago:
I saw a video where he was talking about this. He said something along the lines of “we headed back to shore and ran out of fuel then, um, you know.” Then switched topic and totally moved over that part.
I would find it hilarious if the RNLI had to tow their boat back to shore. But it shows how dumb these people are.

He’s disgusting. By saying that in front of his supporters it’s giving the message it’s ok to behave that way. Vile price of shit.
- Comment on ‘I wasn’t even listening,’ Farage says of donations scandal meeting 1 month ago:
He then goes on blame other people in his party thinking it washes his hand clean. He uses the security card again. He then claims people are out to get him and his party.
He always makes out that he’s the victim and this, I think, resonates with those fools who vote for Reform. They all feel victim to something and want to take revenge.

This is similar to the crypto betting site which is behind Reforms donors. These are probably the tip of the iceberg and needs more attention.

- Comment on Disc drive needed 2 months ago:
When I upgradedy pc a few years ago I realised the case doesn’t have bays for my bluray burners. Instead I bought an external case with usb 3.something.
It’s not an amazing setup but it means on the rare occasions I need to use a disc I can. Usually it’s ripping CDs bought from charity shops and adding to my collection on my NAS or the occasional Blu-ray rip.
What was on the north Korean CD?
